Zoma Contemporary Art Center (ZCAC)

Zoma Contemporary Art Center (ZCAC) Artist-In-Residence Center ZCAC (Zoma Contemporary Art Center) is an eco-sensitive and educational artist-in-residence village.

The concept was first introduced to the public in 2002 during Giziawi #1, its first art happening. Named after Zoma Shifferaw, a young Ethiopian artist who died of cancer in 1979, ZCAC is located in two major cities in Ethiopia. ZCAC Addis is in a house built by Elias Sime in Addis Ababa, and ZCAC Harla is in Harla, a small historic village east of Dire Dawa. ZCAC is run like a family where the su

rrounding community is an extension of the center. ZCAC is governed by international and Ethiopian board members.
